Windows 10: How to swap the tool bar left<->right

I just got a large, curved monitor, but I'm still using another monitor to the right. The new one replaces left and center monitors. That means I'm focused on the right side of the curved monitor.What I'd like to do is swap the taskbar, so the systray, clock, etc, are on the left side of the monitor and the system menu and apps buttons are on the right of the taskbar. Is that possible? If so, how? How don't see an option on Taskbar Settings.This is for both W10 and W11, as I have an older and newer computer both on a kvm.

Left/Right display swapped


When I turn on my Compaq desktop the display will flicker for a few minutes, then the right and left sides swap themselves. It's as if someone cut the picture vertically and switched the sides. Moving the mouse off the left edge makes it appear on the right edge. I figured it was possibly the video driver so I went to the device manager and removed the driver and restarted. That didn't help, after a few minutes the screen flickered and swapped sides again. I set the computer to safe mode and the screen swapping stopped. My thought is to replace the onboard graphics with a stand-alone card. Do you think I'm on the right track?

How to swap left and right SPDIF/DIGITAL audio output?

I have a 2.1 speaker setup, but I have to place the Right speaker on the Left on the right side due do a cable length problem. I am not able to reverse the left and right output audio when in digital. Any suggestions?

Is there a registry setting that I can change to force windows to swap the audio out? Thank you for assisting me with this little problem.

How can I switch or swap my left and right Alt keys functions.

Hi



Welcome to Microsoft community.

To swap the functions of your left and right Alt keys on Windows 11, you can use a tool called SharpKeys. It's a free software that allows you to remap your keyboard keys. Here's how you can do it:

1. Download SharpKeys:
   
   • Visit the SharpKeys GitHub page to find the download link. Download and install SharpKeys on your Windows 11 PC.
     
2. Open SharpKeys:
   
   • Once installed, open SharpKeys. You'll be presented with a very straightforward interface.
     
3. Add a New Mapping:
   
   • Click the "Add" button. A new window will appear where you can choose which key you want to remap from and to.
     
   • You’ll see two columns: “Map this key (from key)” and “To this key (to key).”
     
   • Click on the "Type Key" button under "Map this key (from key)" and press the Left Alt key on your keyboard. SharpKeys will identify it.
     
   • Then, click on the "Type Key" button under "To this key (to key)" and press the Right Alt key. Click "OK."
     
4. Swap the Right Alt Key:
   
   • Click "Add" again to swap the other direction.
     
   • This time, under "Map this key (from key)," press the Right Alt key, and for "To this key (to key)," press the Left Alt key.
     
5. Write to Registry:
   
   • Once you've added the key mappings, click "Write to Registry." This will apply the changes you've just made.
     
6. Restart Your Computer:
   
   • Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Your Alt keys should now have their functions swapped.
     

Please note that while SharpKeys is widely used and considered safe, modifying registry settings can potentially cause issues if done incorrectly. Always proceed with caution and consider creating a system restore point before making changes to your registry.

If you decide later that you want to revert the changes, simply open SharpKeys, select the mappings you've made, click "Delete," and then "Write to Registry" again. Remember to restart your PC to apply any changes.

Disclaimer: Generally, modifying registry subkeys or work group is intended for advanced users, administrators, and IT Professionals. It can help fix some problems, however, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For further protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click How to back up and restore the registry in Windows - Microsoft Support to view the article.
